Abstract: AGILE is an ASI gamma-ray astrophysics space Mission which will operate in the 30 MeV - 30 GeV with imaging capabilities also in the 10-40 keV range. Primary scientific goals include the study of AGNs, gamma-ray bursts, Galactic sources, unidentified gamma-ray sources, diffuse Galactic and extragalactic gamma-ray emission, high-precision timing studies, and Quantum Gravity testing. AGILE will be the only Mission entirely dedicated to source detection above 30 MeV during the period 2003-2006. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
